摘要
Eco-security assessment is a hot research area in resource and environmental science,which involves data with much spatial,non-linear,and random features.Geographic information system(GIS),as a useful tool to analyze and manage spatial information,has a superior advantage in this field.A case study in the western part of the Liaohe River featuring a method of eco-security spatial differences(ESSD)based on GIS is developed in this paper.The method includes four steps:1)developing the pressure-state-response(P-S-R)framework with site data;2)digitizing West-Liaohe River and setting its GRID database of eco-security assessment indicators;3)figuring out the relative membership degree(RMD)of eco-security indicators by using the analytical hierarchy process with the weight of indicator;4)classifying the security zone and mapping the assessment result of eco-security status in grid by GIS method of assigning and clustering.The visual spatial differences of eco-security based on GIS enables decision makers to know the status of eco-security better in making policies for achieving sustainability.
